Progressive Columnist: Riots Are Hurting Our Cause
Granted this columnist has awakened somewhat; BUT!...why do progressives; communist and marxist by nature, (if not way under qualified to govern anything; including their own lives), embrace rules for radicals and Violent Protest?:
“The direct costs of violent protests are fairly self-evident. People who may not have anything to do with the underlying grievances get injured or killed, their livelihoods are impaired, the communities in which the rioting takes place suffer property damage that can linger for decades, and the inevitable police response creates new dangers for innocent bystanders.”
Oh...so next time they will bake us cake and cookies so we will vote for them and not against them.
This isn't a protest...it's just a chance to act up!...those that act this way do not know the issues except the issuance of a paycheck from georgie sorass...
“It is surely the case that some positive social reforms have emerged in response to rioting. … But the question is not whether rioting ever yields a productive response, but whether it does so in general. Omar Wasow, an assistant professor at the department of politics at Princeton, has published a timely new paper studying this very question. And his answer is clear: Riots on the whole provoke a hostile right-wing response. They generate attention, all right, but the wrong kind.”
"Hostile right-wing response"???...how about a reasoned defense in favor of self responsive liberty!
The left operates from a false premise, learned from false and revised history, from a misguided, misunderstood stance of all the values collected by our forefathers in constructing America.
"Many Americans simply want to go about their quiet lives and accept change as it slowly comes."
What!...do You go about your daily routine accepting "liberal or harmful" change as it slowly comes?
I don't...maybe I missed something...

How could anyone develop a "body of knowledge" based on a philosophy of "contradiction"?
The answer is: They can't.
Other than the extreme physical effects, the rest of many of these effects upon mood etc. can be dealt with awareness and mental control.
That's why I say that those unaware will be effected to most.
So, let's put this together: 1 teach the kids bull crap...which amounts to ridiculous mysticism. 2 feed them crappy food, 3 distract their attention with social media, destructive game playing and false ideology, 4, teach them not to work for their needs and give them everything, 5 now, piss them off, wait for atmospheric disturbances then pay them to destroy other peoples hard work because the rest of the conscious world is the cause of their misery!
Presto! you have chaos and riots.
See?..it's a simple formula to keep yourself in power.
I enjoy talking to you, carl.
The variable changes in Space Weather and solar wind parameters lead to perturbations in the environmental electromagnetic fields, certain frequencies of which can “significantly alter the cellular calcium ion fluxes and Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) waves in brain tissue” (Cherry 2001).17
The collected evidence reveals that the effects can go from environmental ULF/ELF signals to directly altering our cellular calcium ion homeostasis, which is capable of altering primate and human EEG waves, thereby affecting cell-to-cell communication and impacting reaction times.
There is evidence that “at days with high neutron activity (CRA) there were more medical emergencies and more deaths… A strong trend of Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) (mostly of fatal cardiac arrhythmia, fibrillation) occurred more often on days of high CRA (neutron activity)” (Stoupel et al. 2014). During periods of low Solar Activity and ‘zero’ geomagnetic activity, data showed that those at risk were more likely to die of SCD; this illustrates the inverse correlation between Solar Activity and Cosmic Ray Activity.
On the other hand, in the scientific paper “Geomagnetic Storms Can Trigger Stroke,” the authors purpose was to present evidence for the impact of geomagnetic activity on stroke occurrence, which has been “limited and controversial.” They conclude that, “Geomagnetic storms are associated with increased risk of stroke and should be considered along with other established risk factors” (Feigin et al. 2014).18 Perhaps it is the balance, the middle ground, which is most prevalent compared to high Solar Activity and CRA, which are short-term events and less prevalent than active conditions.
Previous research shows that geomagnetic variations of a solar origin have been correlated with enhanced anxiety, sleep disturbances, altered moods, and greater incidences of psychiatric admissions (Persinger, 1987).19 Babayev and Allahverdiyeva’s findings indicate, “there were an indisposition, weakness and presence of indistinct localised headaches during the days with severe Geomagnetic Storms in experiment participants.” They concluded that “geomagnetic disturbances affect mainly the emotional and vegetative sphere of human beings… changes in geomagnetic conditions mostly affect the activity of the regulating systems of the right hemisphere and the ability to adapt to changes in a physical environment.”
Oh, yeah, a libtard once sang it to me: "Di-ver-sa-ty."
That's what he sang after saying I should be comfortable with all the Muslims flooding the country.
So I asked what will he say when he gets blown up.
He did not answer that question.
Don't know if he went away mad but he went away.
Guess that's the Big Bang.
Ref point? Not sure but I bet they started with the closest objects.
I had a thought in relation to the "great attractor" and the Electric Universe Theory. I wondered if the Gal. and Univ's going away from us would meet at the great attractor kinda like a Giant Generator.
One thing though: position and motion are relative in this universe. Do these scientists start out with a reference point?
There is a whole lot of stuff we were never taught, however, I will say that some of this wasn't known when I was a kid...Our Vikings, now exiting the heliosphere, (our sun's protection from strong cosmic winds that surrounds our solar system.), have filled in a lot of info.
Check out this body of work...bet you will watch it over and over: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rENyy...
Note: 1 early in the video you'll see measured connections between the stars. 2 note our position in all this...kinda makes one wonder.
I bet you've had more than one "Venus" get into your system, haven't you? ---That was a joke!
Only 433,000MPH? Thought we were moving faster than that.
You're pulling my leg, aren't you?
Let's just imagine that the lack of a voice of our own and the illusion of the voice of others present in bicameral mans brain was do to the lack of a sufficient shielding in our magnetosphere. Then for some unexplained reason our shielding gained strength via rapid sunspot flaring or some other mechanism sufficiently blocking certain frequencies that kept us from evolving into self awareness.
Observing the past it would seem that conditions on earth our sun and our solar system, (all of which have an electrical effect on each other) might have been very different from now.
Perhaps just the addition of Venus into our system was enough to change things a bit. We also suspect that other stars in other systems have an effect on ours.
It's not like we are just sitting still in the middle of nowhere. Our solar system is moving at 433,000mph around the Galaxy and the Galaxy is moving around the local universe as well.
There is still many lifetimes of knowledge we have yet to discover.
God, that is, the God of all, has said that no sincere, genuine search for knowledge is displeasing to him.
Not sure I agree with you about the extent of the "heaven's" influence on the evolution of intellect. (Reminiscent of astrology.) Certainly there is some affect on physical and random mutations.
"All this is not to say that we don’t need change in certain areas. We do. But would we be more effective in making that change through rational discourse and reasoned debate, rather than emotional riots? If so, is it time we returned to teaching the next generation how to actually engage in rational, logical discourse? "
Uh, I have not heard any rational, reasonable debate in a hell of a long time. DC lost that in the 90's or before. Remember Felony Pelosi, ramming Obamacare through the House? Yet no one on their side, or even the other side, want to go back and say "You brought it on yourselves, with lies, misrepresentation and fearmongering".
Teach it? Do you think they have not been "taught" enough? The current couple of generations of snowflakes have been taught by the current educational establishment that all this stuff is what you do, protest, whine, and need a "safe space". How would you teach, when the teachers are just as dysfunctional?
